Chapter 460 The Art of Revenge
True Lord Xuan Yue said, "Let's release the Yin and Yang of your Dao Foundation and take a look."

With a thought, Wei Yuan conjured the image of the girl in Yin and Yang. After carefully examining her, Xuan Yue Zhenjun nodded, and Wei Yuan put her away again.

Xuan Yue Zhenjun pondered and said, "This puppet has already approached the Dao, and is truly an unparalleled opportunity in the world. No one but someone with your fortune can bear it. Even if this old Taoist were to obtain her, I'm afraid he would most likely die a violent death."

Fortunately, after the Great Curse of Karma, your karmic ties with the Witch Clan in this regard have been cleared, so you no longer need to worry about the Witch Clan seeking revenge because of her. Furthermore, her actions are fueled by luck, which, although costing a fortune, has its advantages; unless an immortal is present, it's difficult for others to recognize her true origins. With her by your side, you'll have greater protection as you travel the world.

However, the condition of the person you injured is somewhat strange. His fragmented soul is present in this blood; it appears independent, yet it's not entirely independent. This situation is like a bamboo forest, where each bamboo stalk appears independent, but underground they all share the same root. I can't quite explain the nature of these souls' fates; you'd better have Yanshi examine it.”

Wei Yuan deliberately brought the true blood back to the sect, wanting to investigate the background of the assassins from that day. If his perception in the Arhat Secret Realm was correct, then these people had extremely profound backgrounds and strength, perhaps even comparable to immortal sects.

Since even True Lord Xuan Yue couldn't discern his origins, Wei Yuan headed straight for True Lord Yan Shi's residence.

When Wei Yuan entered the room, he saw Yan Shi Zhenjun with his left arm bare, wrapping bandages around it.

The bandage shimmered with iridescent light, clearly made from the silk spun by five-colored black silkworms. This single bandage was worth more than all of True Monarch Xuan Yue's entire attire.

Knowing that Wei Yuan was coming, True Lord Yan Shi carefully wrapped his bandages and said, "Sit down. There is tea on the table next to you. It can enhance the spirituality of your Dharma form. Help yourself."

Wei Yuan sat down as instructed, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it all in one gulp. Immediately, a misty spiritual rain began to fall from his Dharma image. All the spiritual plants were overjoyed, and the crops planted by mortals visibly increased in size. The spirituality of all mortals also increased.

Wei Yuan felt a little regretful; if Cui Yu and the others had also been immersed in the mundane world, they would surely have benefited greatly.

After drinking one cup, Wei Yuan put down the teacup, even though there were still three or four cups left in the pot.

After Yan Shi Zhenjun finished bandaging his wound, he said, "Being bitten by the dog of the Northern Liao National Preceptor was quite troublesome. What brings you here today?"

Although the Northern Liao's Junior National Preceptor's cultivation level was the lowest among the national preceptors, he was still a Celestial Lord at the Unity Realm, and he was very young with extremely powerful spells. The fact that True Lord Yan Shi could fight him and only suffer such minor injuries was truly formidable. However, relying on Yu Jing to fight at the Unity Realm was ultimately not a long-term solution.

Wei Yuan couldn't help but ask, "Is the Palace Master's injury that serious?"

Yan Shi then said, "Without ascending the immortal mountain, one is ultimately just an ant. Even I, in fact, spend most of my time fighting on the mortal level. When immortals fight, they fight for destiny and reincarnation, and at an even higher level, they fight for the past and present. So, as for the Palace Master's injury, since he doesn't say, none of us know the details."

This matter is far removed from Wei Yuan's life and is also a top secret of the Taichu Palace. Yan Shi was able to say so much because he values ​​Wei Yuan highly.

Wei Yuan took out the small bag of true blood and handed it over. He first briefly explained the origin of the true blood, and then said, "The patriarch thinks there is something wrong with this true blood, but he doesn't know what the problem is, so he wants you to take a look."

True Lord Yan Shi opened his pocket, took out a drop of true blood, examined it carefully, and then crushed it into powder. A dark shadow rose from the fragments, emanating an exceptionally pure aura of anger. This aura suddenly expanded, transforming into a small child with fair skin, red lips, and white teeth, appearing to be only five or six years old, with a chubby, adorable face. However, the child's eyes were cold and ruthless, and his gaze towards his surroundings was clearly filled with arrogant superiority.

The boy suddenly looked at Wei Yuan and shouted, "You wicked creature! You have committed such a heinous crime, yet you dare to appear before me? Quickly come back to the mountain with me and suffer the torment of being skinned alive and having your soul refined, and I might even spare a wisp of your soul!"

With that, he stretched out his small hand and grabbed at Wei Yuan's head. This small hand grew as soon as it was touched by the wind, and in an instant it had transformed into a hand over ten feet in size.

Lord Yanshi flicked his finger, and the boy's hand could no longer grasp. But a fierce glint appeared in his eyes as he shrieked, "Letting you return to the mountain to atone for your sins is already an extraordinary act of mercy, yet you dare to resist?!"

"Good, good, good! I will definitely report this to the Ancestral Master, and make sure that everyone around you who cares about suffers misfortune and dies a terrible death! That woman surnamed Ji will be the first..."

When Lord Yanshi gently pressed down, the boy suddenly stopped moving, as if frozen in time.

Yan Shi Zhenjun chuckled and said slowly, "Another move by immortals and Buddhas! This is nothing more than a watchdog for a great figure in heaven. It's just that some dogs' faces are truly unbearable to look at."

Wei Yuan deeply agreed, saying, "They're like foxes borrowing the tiger's might; once they have a little power, they're always thinking about how to make things difficult for others. I really don't know why those immortals and Buddhas would use them."

Yan Shi Zhenjun said calmly, "Some immortals and Buddhas are not necessarily any better."

"He just said a woman surnamed Ji, could he be referring to Senior Sister?"

A murderous glint flashed across Yan Shi Zhenjun's face as he said, "I'm talking about Liu Li. So that's why Liu Li's Dao heart suddenly went wrong."

Suddenly, True Lord Yan Shi flicked out a flame, instantly igniting the boy formed from black mist! The boy let out a miserable scream, seemingly in extreme pain, his little face contorted as he screamed as if trying to utter some vicious curse, but before he could finish speaking, he was already reduced to ashes.

Wei Yuan was surprised that True Monarch Yan Shi would act so suddenly and without any hesitation, refining a wisp of the opponent's soul. This was a permanent injury, and it would take a great deal of effort to repair the lost soul.

Yan Shi Zhenjun brushed away the flying ash in the air and said calmly, "Dare to attack my disciple? Of course I will make him pay the price! I have even fought against the Liao Clan's National Preceptor. Would I be afraid of a mere watchdog of a celestial being? It's just a pity that I found out too late. Otherwise, I would definitely capture him and refine him into the catalyst for the Qi Luck Array, so that he would know what it means to have calamities return to one's past life!"

Wei Yuan was immediately filled with admiration. True Lord Yan Shi had a method to taking revenge; he not only took revenge for this life, but also for the grudges of his past life.

It's one thing if the two sides were enemies in a past life, but what if they weren't?
Just as Wei Yuan was pondering this question, True Lord Yan Shi took out an array plate, set up an array, silently calculated for a moment, and then said to Wei Yuan, "The other party manifested by using the power of cause and effect to speak to you. This is an extremely sophisticated way of using cause and effect, even I am not as good as it. How did you get involved in this cause and effect? ​​Tell me."

When Yan Shi Zhenjun was in person, Wei Yuan didn't hide anything and recounted in detail the events of his trip to the Luohan True Blood Secret Realm that day, only omitting the part about his encounter with Yuan Fei in the darkness and how he was squeezed into medicinal residue.
